Forests, especially in the Amazonian foothills, mainly towards the bottom of slopes or in valleys where the soil is more wet. The fruit is consumed out of hand, it is sweet, with a thick juicy pulp. The fruit is said to be lacking in flavor, but is quiet sweet. Expect to see fruit in around 5-7 years from seed, these trees can get loaded with fruit even when the tree is not very large.
